IN-PERSON London. Section B
Abstract
This pilot research will explore the state’s role in promoting economic sustainability and affordability in real estate by investigating the process of land value capture through regeneration policies from comparative perspectives from London and Taipei. Market-driven regeneration has been a prevailing policy tool focusing on entrepreneurial governance that could foster or dampen the economic sustainability of the real estate market in cities. Planning authorities employ policy tools to extract private profits for public benefits via real estate development, and this phenomenon fails to see democratic participation as key to creating socially equitable development. This research aims to demystify how the market-driven planning system shapes the behavior of real estate markets in these two capital cities as public planning is deemed the pivot of institutional governance for sustaining healthy market mechanisms in real estate development.
